Mining Compound Coin

While Compound Coin can be mined with a computer it is easier for the novice to gain coins from faucets and earning wallet interest by leaving the Compound Coin open on a good Internet connection.

Currently Compound Coin earns up to 250%APR BUT this is set to drop to 125% APR after block 500,000 (currently over block 407,000). The yearly interest rate will continue to half at other designated block intervals.
